Do one more video on this, but do plex or emby or jellyfin, and let's see if that i9-11900H has any limits, and if so, what are they because I think I'm going to wait for the 12th or 13th generation.
I went ahead and got the same MB/CPU after watching your first video on this, and got it delivered yesterday.For some reason the BIOS splashscreen won't wake either of my monitors so I can't get into the BIOS -.- Or I get in, but can't see what the hell I'm doing XD So instead I went ahead and downloaded Intels tuning software and it keeps a sustained powerdraw of 89Watts, 1440 ST and 13600MT in R23 with no signs of "turbodrop". ST would propably be higher IF I could set XMP in BIOS, but this is still a serious bang for buck deal even at stock RAM speeds. XTU 2 reports the CPU as non OC btw, so can't do any other tweaking than setting the sliders to unlimited inside the software. Couple of things I noticed tho is that the RAM slots are fairly close to the CPU so I had to rotate my 240 AIO block 90 degrees because the tubes overhung the RAM slot in a way even low profile sticks won't fit, and I definitly need to get some fanhead splitters.I even tore apart an old laptop and reutilized the wifi card WITH the antenna, managed to get the whole Lenovo backplate with the internal antenna inside the cablemanagment cover, hidden WIFI DIY approved :'D Cheers!
I went ahead and ordered the 11800H ES version. At $155 shipped for 8c16t, same cache, and just a tad lower clock speed. It was an offer I could not refuse.
Thanks for following up your previous video and answering (amongst others) my virtualization question in this one. My Erying i7-11850H is in the mail already. I wish they had an official website. I look forward to your review of the new i7-12700 or i9-xxxxx when they come out soon!
You need to contact them about getting upgraded VRM heatsinks. The ones you have will get over 100C. They redesigned them and you can buy them for only the cost of shipping.
While I missed out on the board from the last video, my procrastination paid off and they released a board with the i5-12500H...Alder Lake, and Xe graphics with 2 codec engines will be a nice upgrade for my media server!
@@trixniisama I saw the i5-12500H mobo listed recently, but they are probably already sold out. The wifi is integrated with antenna ports on the IO shield area instead of having the expansion slot that could be used for other purposes. That, concerns about the P + E core support for virtualization, and the drive for instant gratification convinced me to pull the trigger on an i7-11850H non-ES board. My TrueNAS Scale is about to get a serious and power-consumption friendly upgrade from my old i7-3770k.
Got the i7 11800h version for $140 shipped. Fingers crossed it will last more than a couple months... gonna pair it with a 5700 xt and see how it goes. Great video!
it would be nice to have a "step by step" guide on overclocking the cpu and also to explain some of the entries of the bios.. so that we can all proceed to adjust our own overclock on those China boards...
You forgot to talk about QuickSync. There is a full G12 Intel GPU on this with good support in Linux. I am planning to use mine as a transcoding machine.
hey Jeff, I have the same motherboard with the i9-11980hk. its fully unlocked and you can adjust everything with throttlestop and intel xtu. also all the options you can adjust with throttlestop and xtu you can set them in the bios
This thing sounds like a perfect setup to run my Minecraft/NAS server. That old 3770 I’m running is running pretty warm even with a decent cooler on it.
Just a small remark about the link to the i7 version in the description: the 6c/12t ES CPU linked are not related to the 11800H, as the 11800H is also an 8 core/16 thread CPU with a slightly lower boost clock than that 11900H. There was an 11800H based ES model as well, but it seems to be sold out like the 11900H models.
Recently got mine, paired it with a RTX 3080 and 32 gb ddr4 RAM, however only got my RAM to 3100mhz, not a big deal for me anyways. Really stoked about this motherboard, works great and paired with the RTX 3080 it is really smooth in games
@@liweilin6649 I would not say the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU, depends on the task, however. This CPU performs about the same, if not better, than a i9 9900k, one of the best desktop CPUs when the RTX 3080 came out. For me it has been great!
I bought the 11800h ES variant of this board and was offered a "more powerful" BIOS from the seller. This more powerful BIOS has lightning bolts as it's background, rather than the standard blue and grey BIOS. I later tested PCI-e passthrough and was successfully able to pass through both the Intel IGPU for transcoding to a VM, as well as passing through a Radeon 6700xt to a windows VM as a virtualized gaming machine. Both worked flawlessly, but only when I made sure that Proxmox did NOT use the GPU on boot, and also disabled resizable BAR in the bios. I've not experimented further with this yet but it's not a totally lost cause!
Dude, I've fighting the world to make it work, I've tried aboslitely everything but in vain .... can you please give me those settings of yours so I can use them, I have the same board as yours and using the lighting bios. thanks a lot, I'm waiting for your answer.
please note that on store page they warn that VT-x feature on ES combos is not guaranteed to work and some users report it is not working so it's a lottery if you're planning to use it as a VM host
OMG someone else still uses AS5. I like the ways it cures, it means its permanently cured, and any overclock you put on is likely to get better temps over time, not worse like most TIM
I just ordered the unlocked i7 version($163.25 shipped). I cant wait to play with something that can potentially oc. Mayby it will replace my 3700x in my secondary pc. Update. Got it. Works great. @stock with 3200mhz ram its roughly on par with my 3700x. but with some tweaking i was able to get it running 4.6ghz ghz all core (100mhz over the single core turbo boost). And now it’s considerably faster than my 3700x. And in some games like borderlands 2 it gives my 5800x3d a run for its money. I might be missing a setting in the bios, but Ive found that the cpu clocks are tdp limited. Its similar to overclocking an amd gpu. Where you have to lower voltages to free up tdp headroom to increase frequency which really limits overclocking potential
As far as I could tell going through all the weird PCIe submenus I saw nothing about bifurcation sadly. I am sure the bios configures this somehow but without the expertise to really pick apart the bios and make a custom bios your not going to simply do so sadly.
Just as an FYI: I accidentally ordered from a duplicate listing not from the company bc of how awful the search function is so it's not going to surprise me if I get a box of rocks instead of a motherboard and have to dispute the order. Be careful with making sure you use the listing he linked.
Honestly i would not dispute it until it arrives. I had really ZERO trouble ordering from China, but i never ordered obvious scams. Just a different seller, probably absolutely the same unit if it arrives as it should.
Take a video as you unbox the package. Aliexpress does not release your payment to the merchant until you confirm you received it (or some time delay - I think it's like 90 days if you dont confirm then they just get the money).
Awesome Videos. Your two vids about this made me go for the 11980HK ES version. Very excited. Sorry to be a pain, but could you make an exact guide to what you did to get 3200mhz to work, alongside sleep mode working. I want mine set exactly like yours 😂
Awesome video as always :) The company who makes this also makes an improved vrm heatsink for it. Definitely check it out if you plan on keeping those vrms cooler.
Nice video! Also about PCIe, can you check if it has PCIe splitting? Another thing, have you ever experimented with using a m.2 PCIe splitting card with some of those m.2 to SAS adapters, for an expandable "native HBA"? Am on the edge to get one of those, but the seller is clueless about PCIe bifurcation.
Hi Jeff, I had bought this motherboard after watching your review... but I did not trust the stock UEFI it shipped with. Not sure if you've ever heard of coreboot (opensource firmware), but I had decided to port it to this motherboard. I'm certain that it will fix VT-d issues you've had, so I thought you'd might be interested to have a look once I finish it :)
@@lukequinn2639 Actually yes, despite bugs I still haven't fixed, IOMMU/VT-d is working. I successfully passed trough an RX6600XT to Windows 10 VM running in KVM :)
I hope erling keeps the Frankenstein boards coming for years to come. No reason to throw good ES cpus out for no reason when they are perfectly good for many people out there.
I have seen that Erying is also selling now a i7-12700H with 14 Cores 20 threads - this could also be a very interesting solution. Anyway, thanks for the in depth analysis of this board. Nice videos
can you please answer the question about AMT? I see some setting for it in the bios, does it support AMT KVM for remote mgmt? I would love this for the homelab if it did.
Dude, the spinning fan on the cooler, makes it look like smoke is coming from the CPU. I'm here thinking: why is that guy not smelling/seeing the smoke?! Edit: cool video, though.👍
Coincidentally mine arrived not 10 mins into your vid :P What a cute little thing haha. I'm much more accustomed to HEDT platforms but this should be fun!
You should see if you can get ahold of one of the Moore Threads GPU's (either the MTT S3000 server GPU with 32GB of VRAM or the MTT S80 consumer GPU with 16GB of VRAM) the latter featured in the new Linus Tech Tips video. I think you could probably figure out how to squeeze more performance out of that Chinese GPU than they could, and it is kinda right up your alley.
thanks for this vid! I just got this mobo/cpu combo a month ago and have been struggling to find time to test these things and learn. interesting about the virtualization problems...i wonder if there will eventually be a fix for that. on that note, were you able to find out any information on Erying as a company? I couldn't find anything when searching, thinking there may be updates out there that could solve issues
I’m just thinking abound for everyone but is PCIe bifurcation supported on these boards? That would really lighten some of its limitations seeing as it is PCIe 4.0 x16 why can’t I have a network card and hba on that one slot?
Awesome thank you so much for the follow up, it answered some questions, though I must say mine came two days prior and having virtualization enabled left me in a boot loop the second it'd hand over to OS. But further question, have you tried direct die cooling?
For cooling, try use a Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut 32x32mm, place it instead of thermal paste between crystal and cooper. It is a thermal pad, reusable, and dont degrade over time. 14$ costs.
Here's an update: I've been playing with mine for a while now, its rock solid, not had any USB issues but I have disabled a few things in the BIOS that I wont use, like the serial port, IGPU, and anything else that I dont need, am using 32GB of kingston fury beasts, it runs rock solid and without crashing @ XMP1 (3200) using gear1 plus a bit of a bump to Bclk of 102.46 cpu is running stable no crashes when pushing so i know I havent got near its limit it plays Star Citizen effortlessly @1080 and it leaves the 8750h in my laptop in the dust! there is one small downside thats the temp the VRM runs at, some knowledgeable people say its fine but I'd rather not take a chance so printed a fan duct to keep them cool and the jobs a goodun! cinebench r23 cpu temp maxes out @ 61c with the 'cpu slug' in place using an old phobya uc-1 waterblock, d5 pump and a giant nova extreme 1080 external radiator thatI managed to shoe horn into my old core X9 case several years ago .. the psu I'm using in a Corsair RM850 which the fan doesnt come on as there isnt enough load from this system.
there are actually variants of this mobo with 11600h, 11800h, 11890hs, 11900h, 11950h, some of which are supposedly (at least, are marketed as) non-engineering samples
Sleep doesn't work in Linux well? Go to the root: Debian. Bam. Hibernation with Gnome and Wayland is a no-go as well as application restarts in the previous state though.
You did mention adding it to the rack.... does that mean you are going for a custom 6U with two boards side by side due to the heatsinks? That would be interesting as they do seem like they could be side by side, unfortunately in a tall configuration.
Running a low power server on one of the 11400h boards at $140 would have been awesome. Too bad they are over $200 now. ☹ these things are pretty darn cool though.
Want more videos on this mobo. The manufacturer announced they are coming out with intel 12th gen in spring. Btw vincent the other guy that has videos on this board is portuguese not spanish 🤣
I got mine a few days ago and had the brilliant idea to remove the copper heat spreader to replace the stock chinese thermal paste with some MX4. Long story short, the temperatures are now out of control. Do you think there's a way to mount a cooler directly on top of the cpu die bypassing the heat spreader?
Update: couldn't find a way to mount a cooler directly to the cpu due to the vrms being in the way. Ended up just manually spreading the thermal paste before replacing the heat spreader and that fixed the overgeating issue.
Apparently the drivers provided by erying get flagged as trojans occasionally. With how many people have now made videos on these boards without mentioning any issues it seems relatively safe to assume this is a false positive? Does anybody have any more information about this?
I ordered the i7-11800 and recieved it and that is all the good news I have. Unit powers up when AC cord is connected, all fans speed up for 10 sec then speed down, then up again, also no video out. Started trounbleshooting and found if the 8 pin CPU is NOT connected the fans stay on and but still no video out from all ports. Going to try a graphic card tonight and see what happens.
Aliexpress now has some of these sellers making notes in their sales ads about this motherboard combo that they do not support virtualization. Maybe a video with one of these using Proxmox and passing through/sharing the Intel UHD to Plex in an LXC container....
Do you know if the built-in network card can be passed through, via VT-D/IOMMU, in e.g. Qubes OS? GPUs are usually hard to pass-through, especially NVidia ones, maybe an AMD GPU might work? Qubes OS doesn't really support GPU pass-through, though, but being able to use the network card in a VM would make using Qubes OS possible.
I have problems enabling hyper v, virtualization is enabled in bios but when i try to enable hyper v on restart windows restart indefinitely. I don't know what to do, help me please!
Just ordered one to act as my high clock and per-core performance server in my homelab. Managed to grab the ES model for about $160 after tax (got very lucky with coupons)! I'd love to see a 1 or 2u build with this maybe using a dynatron AIO server CPU cooler?
I saw a suggestion on the reviews on aliexpress to first install windows (or linux) with the onboard GPU, and THEN slot the dedicated GPU you are going to use after that and boot back into windows.
Thanks to all for suggestion, got it to work with gtx 480, install windows with igpu, select start with igpu at boot priority, put gtx 480, install driver for gtx, reboot and switch hdmi cable to gtx 480
I have a laptop with an 11800H in it but only a 65W RTX 3060. Debating between grabbing one of these boards and building a system or just grabbing an eGPU enclosure. Any thoughts?
What is this C state power saving and where can I disable it? I got the i5 version of this board. Working for the most part. But I randomly get crashes to bad it currupts windows to the point I have to reinstall windows.
You can find the i7 and i5 versions in the ERYING official store, no reviews yet but it seems like a pretty decent option for about $300 for the i7 model.
Got one after your first vid, and with a bit of tweaking on power liits, 2x16GB 32000 kit and i niw have a very nice speedy game server which our Minecraft Vault Hunters and SAtisfactory server absolutley LOVE.
Could someone confirm that the x16 slot actually supports 16 lanes? The Erying 12700H info sheet on AE (if you can trust it) says only 8 lanes are supported.
12th gen splits up pcie lanes differently. While 11th gen laptops get 16x pcie 4.0 to their GPUs, 12th gen only gets 8x 4.0 lanes to their GPU. If I’m not mistaken the trade off is 12th gen gets 2 full 4x 4.0 NVME slots and like 12 extra lanes of 3.0. So in short it’s an intel thing, not erying.

@@trixniisama You can find them pretty easily at the ERYING official store, the i7 version is their 2nd listed item in their landing page.
@@eribetra We clearly do not see the same thing then. There are no 12th gen parts available anywhere in Erying's store.
@craft computing Can you recommend a gpu to match this motherboard: cost efficiency vs cpu throttle limitations?
I'm trying to bring down my power envelope across all my machines, one of these just running at stock sounds like a great idea.
As I'm watching your video, I'm drinking Birra Morretti lager beer, with a Glen Moray single malt chaser. Interesting content as usual mate.
Would this be suitable for running Unraid? If possible, with 9201-16I HBA in IT Mode. Any help would be appreciated.
can you please answer the question about AMT? I see some setting for it in the bios, does it support AMT KVM for remote mgmt? I would love this for the homelab if it did.
You mentioned that HBA would be a no-go. Do you think something like a Dell PERC flashed with IT mode would work?
What's the power draw at the wall for this board on idle and under load?
Could you please post your ACPI and RC ACPI settings? I can not get this system to sleep correctly on Pop OS or any other Linux OS. Thanks!
I bought one last week and I should receive it at the end of the month. can't wait to try this thing.
Dude, the spinning fan on the cooler, makes it look like smoke is coming from the CPU. I'm here thinking: why is that guy not smelling/seeing the smoke?!
Edit: cool video, though.👍
I am currently running mint and its been stable as can be, not a single issue.
Still running 24/7 for a year and still not a single issue. Have gamed, 3d modeld, rendered, created music, tons of stuff. Best money I ever spent
seeing that motherboard combo I see a good value for reviving an old optiplex I have for a nice home theater center.
Coincidentally mine arrived not 10 mins into your vid :P
What a cute little thing haha. I'm much more accustomed to HEDT platforms but this should be fun!
I wonder if the problems with virtualization pass through is due to it being an engineering sample??
You should see if you can get ahold of one of the Moore Threads GPU's (either the MTT S3000 server GPU with 32GB of VRAM or the MTT S80 consumer GPU with 16GB of VRAM) the latter featured in the new Linus Tech Tips video. I think you could probably figure out how to squeeze more performance out of that Chinese GPU than they could, and it is kinda right up your alley.
thanks for this vid! I just got this mobo/cpu combo a month ago and have been struggling to find time to test these things and learn. interesting about the virtualization problems...i wonder if there will eventually be a fix for that. on that note, were you able to find out any information on Erying as a company? I couldn't find anything when searching, thinking there may be updates out there that could solve issues
What im questioning is, does it have TPM 2.0?
I’m just thinking abound for everyone but is PCIe bifurcation supported on these boards? That would really lighten some of its limitations seeing as it is PCIe 4.0 x16 why can’t I have a network card and hba on that one slot?
Awesome thank you so much for the follow up, it answered some questions, though I must say mine came two days prior and having virtualization enabled left me in a boot loop the second it'd hand over to OS.
But further question, have you tried direct die cooling?
For cooling, try use a Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut 32x32mm, place it instead of thermal paste between crystal and cooper. It is a thermal pad, reusable, and dont degrade over time. 14$ costs.
Here's an update: I've been playing with mine for a while now, its rock solid, not had any USB issues but I have disabled a few things in the BIOS that I wont use, like the serial port, IGPU, and anything else that I dont need, am using 32GB of kingston fury beasts, it runs rock solid and without crashing @ XMP1 (3200) using gear1 plus a bit of a bump to Bclk of 102.46 cpu is running stable no crashes when pushing so i know I havent got near its limit it plays Star Citizen effortlessly @1080 and it leaves the 8750h in my laptop in the dust! there is one small downside thats the temp the VRM runs at, some knowledgeable people say its fine but I'd rather not take a chance so printed a fan duct to keep them cool and the jobs a goodun! cinebench r23 cpu temp maxes out @ 61c with the 'cpu slug' in place using an old phobya uc-1 waterblock, d5 pump and a giant nova extreme 1080 external radiator thatI managed to shoe horn into my old core X9 case several years ago .. the psu I'm using in a Corsair RM850 which the fan doesnt come on as there isnt enough load from this system.
i got direct die cooling going with a 240mm rad on the 11980hk and i hit 5ghz all core with good temps
it also says it supports ecc cuz its the same chip as the W-11955m
there are actually variants of this mobo with 11600h, 11800h, 11890hs, 11900h, 11950h, some of which are supposedly (at least, are marketed as) non-engineering samples
Sleep never works properly in Linux?
I haven't had any problems with it since around 2010 or so.
Sleep doesn't work in Linux well? Go to the root: Debian. Bam.
Hibernation with Gnome and Wayland is a no-go as well as application restarts in the previous state though.
How much ram can the board support? I'm thinking of using one as an ESXi 8.0 server...
apologies just read 128gb! cracking :)
You did mention adding it to the rack.... does that mean you are going for a custom 6U with two boards side by side due to the heatsinks? That would be interesting as they do seem like they could be side by side, unfortunately in a tall configuration.
I plan on doing a pair of 2U chassis.
What was the cooler you used? I couldn't catch exactly what you said. Thanks again for the awesome information!
Running a low power server on one of the 11400h boards at $140 would have been awesome. Too bad they are over $200 now. ☹ these things are pretty darn cool though.
Want more videos on this mobo. The manufacturer announced they are coming out with intel 12th gen in spring.
Btw vincent the other guy that has videos on this board is portuguese not spanish 🤣
I don't speak that either...
I got mine a few days ago and had the brilliant idea to remove the copper heat spreader to replace the stock chinese thermal paste with some MX4. Long story short, the temperatures are now out of control. Do you think there's a way to mount a cooler directly on top of the cpu die bypassing the heat spreader?
Update: couldn't find a way to mount a cooler directly to the cpu due to the vrms being in the way. Ended up just manually spreading the thermal paste before replacing the heat spreader and that fixed the overgeating issue.
The 12700h version 14 core 20 thread will be great for a vm server, with 64gb ram
You convinced me to get this board. Which m.2 slot is PCIe 4?
Apparently the drivers provided by erying get flagged as trojans occasionally.
With how many people have now made videos on these boards without mentioning any issues it seems relatively safe to assume this is a false positive?
Does anybody have any more information about this?
How many Watts can be lowered knowing that the default is 45w, it is interesting for a NAS but will it be possible to lower it to 15w?
idle power draw? pretty please with cherry on top. Good work Jeff.
I ordered the i7-11800 and recieved it and that is all the good news I have. Unit powers up when AC cord is connected, all fans speed up for 10 sec then speed down, then up again, also no video out. Started trounbleshooting and found if the 8 pin CPU is NOT connected the fans stay on and but still no video out from all ports. Going to try a graphic card tonight and see what happens.
@CraftComputing Do either or both of the NVMe slots support Optane?
How does the intel compare to the Minisforum AMD 8 core box?? Or Beelink SER7?
AVX2 came out in Haswell. Over 10 years ago in mid 2013
did you try Plex or Jellyfin with iGPU transcoding on this mobo?
In your video there is error in BIOS settings. You set offset +70mv, which makes my CPU working with 92W consumption )
Voltage offset was two menu options. One was the offset (70mv), the other was +/-. The second option was set to -.
@@CraftComputing Yes but you did not do this on video, i just follow BIOS settings without sound and surprised.
why didnt you try to "delid" the processor? I'm sure without the copper shim the temps will be a lot better
Sadly with all the coverage, the board / CPU combo prices have spiked. US$330 to get one here to New Zealand from aliexpress.
You are looking at genuine i9s. You need to look at the Engineering sample boards which are still cheap.
@@staples4335 I had to search - the links above don't work for me. Care to post a link?
@@Rod_Knee I posted you a link already. Seems the replies on here are playing up. Not all are showing up.
@@staples4335 Ah, yes I've noticed that sort of thing happening. YT playing silly games. Thanks regardless, and have a good one.
They now have Intel 1200
Will it be more videos about erying motherboards? 😊
Aliexpress now has some of these sellers making notes in their sales ads about this motherboard combo that they do not support virtualization.
Maybe a video with one of these using Proxmox and passing through/sharing the Intel UHD to Plex in an LXC container....
Do you know if the built-in network card can be passed through, via VT-D/IOMMU, in e.g. Qubes OS? GPUs are usually hard to pass-through, especially NVidia ones, maybe an AMD GPU might work? Qubes OS doesn't really support GPU pass-through, though, but being able to use the network card in a VM would make using Qubes OS possible.
The cpu performs very well, runs extremely good with rx 5700xt with rebar on, just so awesome.
I have problems enabling hyper v, virtualization is enabled in bios but when i try to enable hyper v on restart windows restart indefinitely.
I don't know what to do, help me please!
Just ordered one to act as my high clock and per-core performance server in my homelab. Managed to grab the ES model for about $160 after tax (got very lucky with coupons)! I'd love to see a 1 or 2u build with this maybe using a dynatron AIO server CPU cooler?
What is your oldest gpu working on this board? I tried gtx 480, 680 and 295x2 and none of them works
Did you enable CSM? The board defaults to UEFI and there's a good chance that none of those cards (definitely not the GTX 480) have a UEFI vbios.
I saw a suggestion on the reviews on aliexpress to first install windows (or linux) with the onboard GPU, and THEN slot the dedicated GPU you are going to use after that and boot back into windows.
Thanks to all for suggestion, got it to work with gtx 480, install windows with igpu, select start with igpu at boot priority, put gtx 480, install driver for gtx, reboot and switch hdmi cable to gtx 480
I have a laptop with an 11800H in it but only a 65W RTX 3060. Debating between grabbing one of these boards and building a system or just grabbing an eGPU enclosure. Any thoughts?
Can you do the next video after drinking the bottle?
Timestamps are not in sync? Great video!
Keep the Linux content coming!
Hi,
Do you have a link to the CPU Heatsink & Fan you mention please?
Tried google'n but for the life of me I could'nt find it.
Thanks.
"Sleep never works properly on Linux" 😢it is the truth but why must it hurt so badly?
A tip for anyone who is having random crashes with this board. Disable the C State Power Saving Mode and you will be good 😊
What is this C state power saving and where can I disable it? I got the i5 version of this board. Working for the most part. But I randomly get crashes to bad it currupts windows to the point I have to reinstall windows.
For PCIe passthrough, could it be a IOMMU group issue? May need to set kernel option pcie_acs_override as mentioned on Proxmox wiki.
But truenas should work just fine? all SSD zfs Array as an example?
I hope this company makes similar 12th gen boards in the future.
They already exist btw
They doo 🤪
@@cefxsd40m-29 link?
@@mapscorp link?
You can find the i7 and i5 versions in the ERYING official store, no reviews yet but it seems like a pretty decent option for about $300 for the i7 model.
thats is to show how probly the laptop division on amd and intel are just the true monsters in the room
Got one after your first vid, and with a bit of tweaking on power liits, 2x16GB 32000 kit and i niw have a very nice speedy game server which our Minecraft Vault Hunters and SAtisfactory server absolutley LOVE.
Could someone confirm that the x16 slot actually supports 16 lanes? The Erying 12700H info sheet on AE (if you can trust it) says only 8 lanes are supported.
12th gen splits up pcie lanes differently. While 11th gen laptops get 16x pcie 4.0 to their GPUs, 12th gen only gets 8x 4.0 lanes to their GPU. If I’m not mistaken the trade off is 12th gen gets 2 full 4x 4.0 NVME slots and like 12 extra lanes of 3.0.
So in short it’s an intel thing, not erying.
@@Warren_Elrod thank you!
